CVE-2024-1234 is a stored cross-site scripting vulnerability (CWE-79) in the Exclusive Addons for Elementor plugin for WordPress. The issue arises from improper neutralization of input during web page generation, specifically insufficient sanitization and escaping of a data attribute. This allows authenticated users with contributor or higher privileges to inject arbitrary web scripts that execute in the context of users viewing the compromised pages. The vulnerability affects all versions up to and including 2.6.9. The CVSS 3.1 base score is 6.4, reflecting network attack vector, low attack complexity, required privileges at the contributor level, no user interaction, and impacts on confidentiality and integrity with no availability impact.

Successful exploitation allows an authenticated contributor or higher to inject and store malicious scripts that execute in the browsers of users who visit the infected pages. This can lead to unauthorized disclosure of information and modification of content within the affected site context. There is no indication of availability impact or known active exploitation in the wild.

No official patch or remediation guidance is currently provided by the vendor. Patch status is not yet confirmed — check the vendor advisory for current remediation guidance. Until a fix is available, restrict contributor-level access to trusted users only and consider removing or disabling the Exclusive Addons for Elementor plugin if possible to reduce risk.
